Onchan MHK Peter Karran believes most of the measures it contains are worthy of praise, but says he is unhappy that what he sees as a significant group has been overlooked.
He says his mind was made up by a lack of support for those who earn just too much to be eligible for benefits, but struggle to make ends meet on a monthly basis:
Murder accused had intellectual age of 'nine-year-old'
Jury hears suspect had borderline learning disability
